More numbers. And no sense beating around the bush at this point. It is a big win for Obama.

In fact, it is time for the Clinton folks to worry, at least a wee bit, whether she will hit the 15 percent threshold which she needs to qualify for any portion of the 20 delegates to be alotted. Shouldn’t be much trouble in the 1st Congressional district, which is Urban Honolulu, but Clinton is closer to the 15 percent line in the 2nd (Rural Oahu - Neighbor Islands).

One thing is clear. Hawaii will send the bulk of its 20 committed delegates to the national convention in Denver in the Obama camp if the race remains contested at that point.

The second report on vote totals, still very fragmentary, but involving Neighbor Islands as well as Oahu, shows Obama scooping up about three quarters of the total.
